NEWS RELEASE Contact: Kimberly Fians or Bree Clidence Caster Communications, Inc. 401/272-7090 CASTROL® SYNTEC® POWER SYSTEM GIVES ENGINES A MUCH-NEEDED BOOST CASTROL PROVIDES PROFESSIONALS WITH A WEAPON FOR COMBATTING DEPOSIT BUILD-UP Wayne, NJ - June 1, 1999 -- Castrol® SYNTEC® POWER SYSTEM, developed by Castrol North America's Automotive Division, provides automotive professionals with an opportunity to help ensure that their customers receive the ultimate in engine performance. Castrol's premium fuel system treatment removes deposits throughout the entire fuel system and actually neutralizes them in the combustion chamber in just one dose. Castrol SYNTEC POWER SYSTEM is formulated with unique synthetic cleansers that remove deposits from an engine's entire fuel system, including fuel injectors, carburetors, intake valves, intake manifolds, and fuel intake ports to neutralize power-robbing effects of combustion chamber deposits. Professionals in the automotive industry are now given the opportunity to increase customer satisfaction and their own bottom line. Fast lube operators and service technicians can use Castrol SYNTEC POWER SYSTEM with customers who complain that their car or truck doesn't have the pickup that it used to or who want to boost their engines' overall performance. Castrol's premium fuel system treatment also helps to stop engine knock, reduce emissions, increase gas mileage, and eliminate the need for higher octane gas. Because unburned gasoline decomposes in the fuel system each time an engine is driven, professionals can recommend that their customers have a fuel system treatment done every 3,000 miles concurrent with their scheduled oil change. This helps prevent today's high technology, knock-sensored engines from "de-tuning" themselves as a result of deposit buildup. Castrol SYNTEC POWER SYSTEM's unique synthetic cleansers clean and prevent deposit build-up better than ordinary cleansers and are proven in laboratory testing to reverse "engine de-tune", which causes engines to experience hesitation, stalling, sluggishness and poor acceleration. Castrol SYNTEC POWER SYSTEM PROFESSIONAL is only available through Castrol distributors. Call 1-888-CASTROL for more information. Castrol markets leadership brands Castrol GTX, Castrol SYNTEC and Castrol SYNTEC BLEND, in the conventional, full synthetic and synthetic blend lubricant product segments, respectively. Castrol also maintains a leadership position in the automotive chemical market via the Castrol Super Clean line of cleaners. In addition, Castrol participates in various motor sports programs, sponsoring eight-time NHRA champion John Force. Castrol has partnerships with the National Basketball Association (NBA), National Football League (NFL), and World Wrestling Federation (WWF).
